Laboratoire Saint Côme's aromatherapy approach

Published: 23-Apr-2019

Laboratoire Saint Côme is a family-run business owned by Christian and Claude Richard, twin brothers, and pharmacists, who are leading the famous pharmacy “de la Croix Blanche” in the city of Dijon, France.

Coming from a long line of pharmacists, the brothers still hold traditional values, rather like their father, Camille Richard, and reflect this in their brand and product lines such as “Live life with dignity and generosity”.

Having started the pharmacy together in 1981, the brothers wanted a more close and personal relationship with their customers, and hence, in 1983, started to emphasize the apothecary herbal side of the shop, while keeping the prescription side of the business as on-going.

Phytotherapy has always been their passion since they were 7 when their grandmother was taking them to the forest to teach them how to use tree leaves or plants to heal all sorts of disease. At the same time they discovered the extraordinary story of Saint-Cosmas and Saint-Damian, twin brothers of course, physicians and skilled doctors who were living in Syria in the  IIIrd century, healing people. Accepting no payment for their services led to them being named Anargyroi, from the Greek Ανάργυροι, "the silverless" or "Unmercenaries". The twins discovered later that not being paid was not possible. So they decide to always offer more to their clients.

To avoid the risk of being labelled as “folk remedies” they researched thoroughly through their clientele and offered the best natural healthcare solutions possible, while avoiding chemical drugs at all costs. Word spread throughout the region that this dynamic duo was giving sound advice and products that indeed made a difference.

In their partnership Christian is in charge of natural remedies while his brother Claude is in charge of all cosmetic products. Early in the year of 2000, Claude started to work on a new project: Airborne Aromatherapy, and hence the beginnings of the Aromaspray products line. His desire was to create aromatherapy without the safety risks, while ensuring the benefits, and achieving to deodorise & purify the atmosphere with aromatic notes. After weeks of research, and testing he created 10 synergic scents: Lavender-Rosemary, Orange-Palmarosa, Lemon-Cedar, Cloves-Camphor, Lemongrass-Wild Thyme, Mint-Eucalyptus, Mint-Neroli, Myrtle-Sandalwood, Thyme-Cinnamon and Ylang-Bergamot.

The first clients chosen to test the products found them amazing because of the high concentration of the premium grade quality Essential Oils used. They noticed the strong persistent scent achieved with just one spray.

Danger signs:

Up to 3 danger signs are on our bottles:

  • Health hazard: The sign corrosive to the skin does not exist anymore and is included in this category. Essential oil can create a skin reaction. So it’s better not to spray them directly on the skin
  • Flammable:This product is made of 71% of alcohol, but the alcohol use is undenatured meaning free from chemicals and far

  • Hazardous to the environmentThis sign must be on products which are fungicide, even natural. Tanker truck-sized spills of substances such as Essential Oils or Milk can cause a lot of damage to the local aquatic ecosystems. A 100ml bottle is far less dangerous than that.
 This sign shouldn’t make you afraid, but on the contrary help you to understand that our room sprays are made of active principles which can’t be overused.
